The sensor tech of the 1D Mark V will be used for future crop bodies e.g. the 7D Mark II.

The 7D Mark II is a late 2012 camera.

Expect significantly better noise reduction in high ISO modes.

Another full frame camera for sports and press this fall?

Announcements could be as early as the week of August 29, 2011.

EF 14-24 f/2.8L

I’m told this will be announced in Q1 2012.

CR’s Take

This is a big [CR1], I am posting information that is at least plausible. Grain of salt and all that. Various rumor sites are going to get a lot of stuff coming our way in the next few weeks, sorting it is always a challenge.

14-24mm would be nice, been pondering getting a wider fast prime to use on my crop, been considering the f1.8 28mm and I'm a tad reluctant to look at the 10-22mm EF-S due to the speed, or the 17-55m EF-S lens because of the mixed reviews and comments on build quality... Price ? Hopefully less than the 16-35mm, circa Â£700-800 maybe ?

be great if a 14-24 would be that price but I highly doubt it i have a feeling it would be over 1000 hope I'm wrong though

I have heard via a rep that Nikon plan to release a camera in the Autumn and then one in the Fall. He also claims that he knows Canon are releasing two models in the interim periods. Which are of a similar level and quality. The first from Nikon in the D700 replacement and then next is a D3 replacement.

i wonder how they'd distinguish it from the 14mmL already in the lineup. Usually you loose some speed when you get a zoom, but since Nikon has the f2.8 I'd be very surprised if canon didn't match them. Maybe they'll just discontinue the 14mm?

How about asking your sources to provide an overview of how the pro line is changing overall? Sports bodies with hi fps, studio bodies with built-in radio strobe control, video bodies with follow focus...

Fall and Autumn are the same thing, so 2 cameras this fall?

No, 2 cameras this autumn.but winter's nearly over, so next autumn doesn't start until march1 2012, sounds about right for any 5d3 release ...

Terms like fall and autum mean different months to those in the Southern and Northern hemispheres. Sometimes its clearer to just name a month. For us in the North, Fall is coming on September 23, 2011..
